Potential for abuse is rampant. As Public Knowledge points out, Google could easily take it upon itself to delist every viral video site on the internet with a “good faith belief” that they’re hosting copyrighted material. Leaving YouTube as the only major video portal. Comcast (an ISP) owns NBC (a content provider). Think they might have an interest in shuttering some rival domains? Under SOPA, they can do it without even asking for permission.
What Is SOPA?

My name is Phillip. I'm a 29 year old account planner,or brand planner, or strategist or whatever you want to call it at an "internet" advertising agency called razorfish in New York. I've worked for retail giants, pro-sports teams, electronics, on big american cars, and come up with quite a few inappropriate ideas for male hygiene products. My job entails explaining social concepts and trying to generally be "up" on stuff like trends, people's habits, media, the things that may interest my clients (especially when they have no idea how it would interest them). I live in the East Village (best place I've ever called home) and like attend loud concerts as well as quiet ones. Food and drink is also a big part of my off time pursuits.
This is some of the stuff I run into on a daily basis.
